Alexander Wang To Hold “Intimate” Balenciaga Show

ALEXANDER WANG's debut show for Balenciaga will be an "intimate" occasion. The designer's first collection for the French fashion house will be shown via a "salon-style format", confirmed a spokesperson for the brand.

The showcase is being described as an "introductory season", and the audience will be smaller than usual. Recent seasons have seen the brand hold full-scale catwalk shows either at the Crillon Hotel or in its Rue Cassette showrooms.

Little more is known about the presentation, with a location yet to be confirmed - but it is set to take place at 9.15am on February 28 during Paris Fashion Week. Wang was confirmed as Balenciaga's new creative director in November last year, succeeding Nicolas Ghesquière - who stepped down after 15 years at the helm.

While any details about the upcoming collection have been kept firmly under wraps, it was previously revealed that Wang has been spending an extensive amount of time visiting the brand's rich archives, with Balenciaga CEO Isabelle Guichot commenting: "He could have slept there almost."
